Tales from the Pub

Yeah, so anyway I went out with my cousins on Saturday and it was a fun time. We started at a restaurant called Vivaldi's and afterwards went to McGibbons: WI in Pointe-Claire. I had a glass of wine with dinner and then started with a pint at the bar, which I nursed for a good hour and a half. (I was also talked into a shot by my cousin Cindy, something called "Liquid Cocaine". It was strong but it tasted like cinnamon so I survived.) I was pretty well behaved, afterall, I only chose weddings to cross over to the dark side, that's when I truly shine... Heh.
Any-hoo, here's a funny story: We were all sitting in the pub when I looked up and there was a sign for Galway which I announce to my cousin "Hey, that's where my father's family comes from!" and my cousin replies astonished "Your dad's family is from Ireland?" Um, yeah I told her and ask her where she thought Costello was from and she tells me "Oh, I thought you guys celebrated the Irish stuff because of your mom... I don't know, I thought your father was Dutch or something." So then I look at her, still kind of stunned that this girl that I've known for twenty-nine years doesn't know squat and asked her "Did we just meet or something?"
Ok maybe it's not funny to you but I thought it was amusing. Sometimes people you think you know as well as the back of your hand can surprise you.
